Today I came across the sentence, 「日本のスポーツと礼の関係について話しています。」 I scratched my
head looking at this initially thinking the meaning of 関係 is
relation/relationship, connection. Then I found out 関係 also has the meaning on
(involvement). Does that mean this sentence translated to (Talking about
Japanese sports and proper etiquette’s involvement/role)?

Thank you!

スポーツと礼の関係について translation


You don't have to overthink. AとBの関係 is just "relationship between A and B".

> (<日本のスポーツ>と<礼>の関係)について話しています。
>
> [Someone] is talking about (the relationship between <Japanese sports> and <
> _rei_ >).

礼 basically means bowing, but as you know, it implies much more, and that's
the theme of the speech. Still, the grammar of this sentence itself is simple.
